Flyers' Stolarz makes history as NHL's 1st New Jersey-born goalie
Eric Hartline-USA TODAY Sports
Anthony Stolarz plays goal for the Philadelphia Flyers, but he represents the state of New Jersey. And the 22-year-old made home-state history Sunday.
Hailing from Edison, Stolarz became the first New Jersey-born goalie to play in - and win - an NHL game. He made 29 saves in his successful debut.
